There's a button on the keyboard, top row, next to the bluetooth button. Will toggle the track pad on and off.

I know A LOT of people know this.. you can slide your finger accross the notification bar to set the screen brightness when auto brightness is turned off.
Well something I found out today.. you don't slide at all.. you can.. but you just got to pick a spot on the notification bar and long press. So you want it at 50%, long press in the middle.
This is a lot better too... more sensitive.

I didn't know either of these features so thanks for this post

Works for me on PWGB beta 3. This is why I like Android so much, the hidden little tricks and short cuts.
just the old trick. I find this tip potential more than 2 months ago on youtube

I'm running the stock ROM, unrooted, and ever since my update to JB, the screen will no longer rotate. When the screen is locked it WILL rotate, but once unlocked, it won't. Any ideas?
Do you have an app such as this installed?

Nope...but I can give it a shot. It was auto-rotating until the JB update.
Check your notification area there is a switch next to the Wi-Fi switch turns auto rotation off my son switched it and it had me stumped for a couple hours

You know what, that's probably it...I was looking all over the Settings and couldn't find it...I'll look when I get home tonight. Sounds like it was right in front of me the whole time .
Thanks for all of the replies.
Yup, that was it...duh! Thanks for the help...I feel like a real idiot now .

I have a backlight problem with my HTC EVO Shift. The backlight has stopped working consistently. I believe it has something to do with the cable in between the slider part. When my phone is completely shut, the backlight is not working. When my phone is completely open (keyboard exposed) the backlight is not working. when my phone is in the halfway position (keyboard partly exposed) the backlight illuminates the screen and I am able to use the phone. It is very difficult to continue to use the mobile device in the halfway point. I have another mobile device on the way but I will need to see the screen in order to get the rest of my data off, or at least make a nandroid backup and go from there.
If it is not the cable then can someone point me in the right direction. If it is the cable/screen could someone tell me where to get a replacement. I am capable of doing repairs. I would rather not if it is avoidable.
thank you xda community.
Re: Backlight Screen Problem
Main flex cable could be your issue. Grab the part from eBay

Re: Backlight Screen Problem
I have one on the way. Thank you. Funny thing. When i took it apart the cable itself looked okay. I guess there may be damage within i cannot see. I do use the keyboard ALOT.
Thanks again

If you're using the xda app, just add "solved" in the subject line. You may need to scroll up to see it...

If you edit your first post, the best way is to just add "[SOLVED]" to the beginning of your thread title
To give thanks, from the app either tap on the persons post and then hit the thanks popup, or on the computer theres a Thanks button under their name
Hi! Im getting my galaxy s4 this week. Im a fan of on screen buttons. I know there are ways to disable the buttons and enable on screen controls. But I also love having a camera button and I think that the home button would be perfect for that. Is this possible? Thank you very much in advance for any answers/help.

How would you then leave the app?
Far better solution would be to have volume key or power key the camera button.

Sometimes my knock on doesn't work. I end up tapping the screen 5-10 times to get it to come on. Anyone else having this issue?

I usually have to tap like the exact same spot
And make sure you don't cover the proximity sensor

Strangely enough, I found how hard I knock matters to whether it works our not. I had the same issue with knocking 5 - 6 times until I lightened my touch.
YMMV

On your second tap, hold it on the screen for a millisecond longer.
I just hold my screen and shake my phone and it turns on

What are you using for that?
I too have noticed hard taps ate a bit more unresponsive. Mines perfect with quick ready doubletap.

This actually helped. For months the Knock On feature worked smoothly, as did the Off feature. Suddenly it stopped working so well. I had to tap very precisely and slowly, even then it was hit or miss. Better now. Off isn't an issue because I use Nova launcher gesture with Screen Off. Is there any way to adjust the sensitivity of the proximity sensor?
